But the javascript code is shown in a textarea element, as opposed to a script element... as far as I can tell, there's no actual javascript check() function. When I type in my password, nothing happens. There's no fail popup or win popup. I tried modifying the textarea element to a script element (along with modifying the onClick attributes) using the chrome developer tools, and when I submitted it that time I got the win popup, but that didn't register as a completed challenge.

Anyone else having this problem?

Edit: Found the source of this problem, it's a similar issue in mission 6. If you're using Chrome with SSL, it won't load any scripts with absolute URLs that are not HTTPS. It doesn't seem like it's possible to disable SSL in new versions of Chrome, so I just used Firefox to complete both this mission and 6. The admins should stop using absolute URLs if they wish to offer SSL connections.

i have the same problem, i have the right password but nothing happens, no win or fail alert. i tried to rutn of SSL in firefox but that won't work as i have to access the site through SSL. I can't change the URL to HTTP, it will automatically change to HTTPS. if i turn off SSL, i can't access the site anymore. Any help on that?
